1) Setting up chess board : White on Right & White king on black square & Black king on White Square.

White square on right rows

A chessboard is of 64 squares , having 32 white squares & 32 black squares that are alternately placed on achess board. Now every square on a chess board has a unique identity so that it can be easily denoted,hence the chessboard is horizontally divided into 8 rows from row 1 to row 8 & vertically divided into 8columns, from column a to column h. (Row=Rank & Column=file)

Hence the extreme square on right hand side on which Rook is standing is h1 square, h-column & 1 st row .

K=King.

Q=Queen.

B=Bishop.

N=Knight.

R=Rook.

p = pawn.

White plays , pawn in front of king to e4 square, e column & 4 th row . Whenever pawn moves or captures,it is denoted by square on which it stands. Black plays c6, c column & 6 th row.

Whites pawn on e4 square captures blacks pawn on d5 square; this is written as e4xd5 or exd .

White moves his king from f1 square to g1 square, this is written as Kg1. Black king captures white pawn, this is written as Kxd6.

White plays his knight from f2 square to h3 square, this is written as Nh3. N=Knight. Going onh3 square hence Nh3. Black plays Qc5+ giving check to white king.

Blacks bishop on g4 square pins white knight on f3 square, now if white knight moves thenwhite queen on d1 square is gone which is a more valuable piece than a knight, bishop or rook.

Whites knight moves from f4 square to e6 square in order to fork blacks queen & rook.Fork means knight is attacking two pieces at a time & both of them are move valuable than knight.One piece is going to fall for sure, either queen or rook. ( NxQd8 or NxRf8 )

10Game: 1[Event "Rated game, 3m + 3s"] [White Diehard "(Nitin)] [Black Koltyfan] [Opening "Pirc Defense: Miscellaneous Systems"] [ECO "B07"]

1) e4Best by Test according to Sir Bobby Fischer, Former World champion!! First of all after playing e4!, Whites pawn immediately strikes in the centre , controlling d5, f5

squares, which are important squares in the centre as it is important to control centre on a chessbattlefield, moreover, Whites Queen & Bishop diagonal are opened, which means they can movewhenever they want to. Also e4 gains some more breathing space for white gaining half territory ofthe board, where white can develop pieces.

d6 ...This is initial move which indicates Pirc defense.Basic idea behind Pirc defense is, initially allowing white to take centre control, but black strikesThe center later on as he develops his pieces, to form Sicilian Dragon like structure, where blacksf8 bishop goes to g7 square, attacking centre from a safe corner as well as doing a defensive job ofguarding black king.

2) d4going for ideal pawn centre, now d4 & e4 are controlling c5, d5, e5, f5 important squares. HenceThis makes difficult for Black to land up any pieces on those squares.

e5 strikes the centre. Fights back for equal share in centre but in this case it is a bad move, as wewill see as the game progress.

3) dxe5! This is a good move because, this pawn exchange, removes the only centre pawn that black has.Moreover if black takes pawn on e5 with d6 pawn then queen exchange will take away the right toKing castle for black. Lets see!

dxe5

4) Qxd8+! Exchanging queens thus stopping Blacks king from castling as he has to move in order torecapture whites queen.

Kxd8 forced move.

5) Nf3... Attacking e5 pawn & centre control with piece development.f6 ..Supports e5 pawn

6) Bc4 ..Developing bishop & getting ready to castle O-O.Bc5 ..Attacking the f2 pawn

7) O-O.. King castles to safety.c6 ..This is again a bad pawn move.

8) Rd1+ Developing rook on open file.Kc7 again bad move, placing king in centre, helping white to catch blacks king defenseless in the centre.

In such situations black should try to take king away from centre to a safe place & should developpieces rapidly to neutralize whites attack.

Note: Beginners & Newbies please check the glossary given at the last page of this book tounderstand some basic chess terms.

White plays Rd1+Rook controls an open d-file.

9) a3 ..Idea is to attack blacks only active piece bishop, in centre, with a pawn move b4 on next whitesmove.

Ne7 ..Developing piece & clearing way to activate Rook.

10) b4! Attacking bishop with pawn, & strengthening mating net around blacks king.Bb6

11) a4 ..Pressurizing blacks bishop again, forcing it to move, yet again.Bd4

12) Nxd4! Exchanging Knight for Bishop & also freeing up a square for c1 bishop.exd4

13) Rxd4 ..Keeps king in mating net by controlling open file, now black is also a pawn down.Rd8 ..Idea to exchange rooks, thus giving black king space to move freely after the exchange, thus

Idea is to neutralize the threat. But I had a surprise for him, waiting!

Black plays Rd8

14) Bf4+! And its all over for black.Now, the only square for king to go is b6, his own pieces & pawns block his way to safety. If black kinggoes to b6, then whites pawn move a5+! Would give checkmate to black king & that would be so shamefulfor black king to be defeated by a mere pawn!!!However Black can block check by interference of blacks d8 rook, but this also loses as black goes a piecedown after whites Rxd6! Stopping black king from escape & going up in material.So Black resigned.

13Game: 2[White "Nitin"]

[Black "Kasparov chess deluxe (Expert mode)"] [Opening "Smith-Morra Gambit "][ECO "B21"]

1)

e4 Games with e4 leads to open games, where later on in the game, open files, open ranks, open

diagonals are created leading to quick attacks & plenty of action packed games as compared to closegames starting with d4.c5This is the initial move of so called Sicilian Defense of Black, this defense is considered one ofBlacks most dynamic defense against e4.

2)

d4attacking center in order to open up d-file, white wants of take initiative from the very start.cxd4..Black takes a center pawn of white.

3)

c3! This is Smith-Morra gambit , White offers one more pawn here, the idea is to Open up d-file &sideline blacks c-pawn, & to go ahead in development of pieces, & asking black to waste his time bygrabbing pawns while in that time white develops his pieces on active squares leading to attackingopportunities for white in compensation for pawns!

dxc3..Black grabs material.

4)

Bc4White ignores c3 pawn & develops his bishop on an attacking square c4, aiming at f7 squareof black. Here White can also play Nxc3! which develops piece & capture blacks c3 pawn.Qc7 develops queen & attacks bishop.

5)

Qb3! Develops white Queen, supports bishop while creates Queen+Bishop Battery & creates threaton f7 pawn.cxb2..Black ignores threat as black king can move to d8 square, grabs more material & goes aheadby 2 pawns.

Bxf7+white gets back a pawn.Kd8 Forced move.

10)

Nc4! Attacks black queen, & clears d1 square for rook.

Qc5

11) O-O king safetyNf6develops other knight.Look at the position now,

White has completely developed position with all pieces active & king safely castled, all this at costof only 1 pawn. Moreover white went ahead in development by gambiting pawn & also won tempoby attacking black queen several times meanwhile developing pieces, while black has just 3 piecesdeveloped while his king is hanging in center.


14/95


NKC VOL-1

14

White completes development with attacking & game winning prospects.

12) Rad1! Controls open file, d-file on which black king stands, whites all pieces are deadly & onaggressive post.Nxe4grabs pawn goes ahead by 2 pawns, but now center is open only for white to take advantageof it.

13) Nf4! Bringing knight in center to contribute to attack, as knight gets a dangerous piece when it is

close to enemy post.a5 ..Idea is to attack white queen & push it away.But White has a stunning move which black overlooked.

14) Ne6+!! Uses the advantage of blacks d7 pawn pinned by whites d1 rook, so it cant move & whiteknight forks King & Queen & delivers a stunning Checkmate to black.

White plays Ne6#

15Game: 3[Event "Rated game, 3m + 3s"] [White "Bret heart"] [Black "ARAG"] [Opening:"Danish Gambit "][ECO "C21"]

1. e4 play in center, opens up diagonal for white Queen & Bishop.e5 equalizing move, same reasons.

2. d4Attacking e5 pawn, asking it to move or capture immediately, thus opening e-file.Nf6Attacks white e4 pawn & develops a piece in centre. Disadvantage of this move is that black loses a

tempo, as white pawn attacks it after capturing e5 pawn.

3. dxe5attacks knight, opens d-file, gains space advantage in center. Nxe4equalizing with piece develops in center.

4. Bd3develops piece in center, attacks black knight & makes it to move again.Nxf2Knight sacrifice by black in order to trap white king in center for checkmate.

Black sacrifices the only active piece he had in the centre of the board, with an idea of trappingwhite king in center, but he cant checkmate white king unless he develops his pieces, in the centre. Also hethought that moving knight back would waste a tempo, so why not to sacrifice the knight so if then whiteking captures knight, he loses the right to castle to safety & thus white king will be open to attack in thecenter.

5. Kxf2White king captures knight, thus loses right to castle. Now white king is open to attack in centre. Bc5+ black develops piece in center & forces white to defend his king.

6. Be3defends king & attacks black bishop, & develops a piece. Bxe3+ is exchanging to keep white king in center.

7. Kxe3, O-O black castles to safety.Looking at this position, Black hasnt got much of a compensation for his knight sacrifice, althoughwhites king is in center, but none of black piece attacks it.

8. Nf3develops piece, supports pawn, activating rook. Qe7 attacks pawn, trying to open e-file & attacks king in center.

9. Nc3develops knight, strengthen centre control.c6a bad move, instead of developing pieces he is playing with pawns.

10. Qe2activates queen on e-file & supports e-pawn.d6 attacks e5 pawn, now e5 pawn of white cannot take d6 pawn as white king is in check.

11. Kd2King moves to safety, and d6 pawn of black cant capture whites e5 pawn as Nf5 defends it.Qd7 again bad move, black moves queen same piece again, and doesnt develop blacks bishop or

other piece.

12. Rae1 develops piece in centre, strengthen e-file & activates rook. d5closes centre.

13. Kc1, c5pressurizes white bishop.


16/95


NKC VOL-1

16

White has completed development with all active pieces!

14. Rhf1Controlling open f-file, thus activates rook & develops a piece. c4Attacks white bishop & now he must be very happy to see my bishop trapped as it didnt had any

safe place to go to. But at that time he didnt had any idea what so ever of what was going to happen next.

15. Bxh7+!! Stunning move that took black by surprise & it was a bolt out of the blue, for white.Blacks happiness didnt last long.

White plays Bh7+ with idea of Ng5+ & Qh5!

Now take a look at the position on the board ,In order to play Bxh7 , first try to understand the piece position, on the board.As well as take following aspects into consideration.a) Black is behind in development as he has no active piece developed in the center of the board.b) Even though black king castled to safety, but is still in danger & weakly defended.However white pieces: Queen, Knight, Bishop, and Rook are all pointing towards black castle king.c) h7 square is weak and has no defense of black king.

All this reasons are enough to point out that there is definitely a mating attack in this position,so here it is:

a)

Look at h7 square which can be opened by bishop sacrifice. b)

Then look at white knight on f3 square , if it goes to g5 square it covers h7 square.

c) Then look at Queen on e2 square , it can go to h5 square if knight clears her way by moving to g5square .

Hence there is definitely a mating pattern in this position..

So after thinking on it; I found the exact move sequence that the position was demanding.a) Bxh7 then Ng5+ then Qh5 then Qh7 mate #

..Kxh7


17/95


NKC VOL-1

1716. Ng5+! This move forces black king to move again as in case of any knight check the only way to escapeis by making king to move.

..Kg8

17. Qh5! Controls open h-file & completely trapping black king in mating net, now its end of black as hewill be checkmated on whites next move & black has no defense & no escape from Qh7#.

White plays Qh5!

Black understood that & resigned. Black resigns after being stunned! White wins 1-0

KEY POINTS:1)

Early development of pieces. (Bd3, Nc3, Nf3, Qe2, Re1, Rf1)

2)

Think twice before sacrificing material & dont play a poor sacrifice. (Nxf2) 3)

Working king to safety. ( Kd2, Kc1)

Black queen & white square b7 bishop is inactive.

d)

Now h-file is open with king trapped.Now, h7 square is main focus, somehow white has to get queen & rook on h-file withoutwasting a move.

If white knight goes on g5 square then it supports bishop & also queen can go on h7 as Ng5support it. And hence I calculated bishop sacrifice.Also if black played g6 to trap my bishop then I had Ng5 which supports bishop, then if blackplays f6 then forced exf..black can fight back but its king side is opened up with white havingattacking possibilities with activated rooks & queen &white has 2 pawns(+)Accurate play willlead white to win. So with every possible variation white has superior position & materialadvantage with his king safety placed & well defended, which will definitely lead white tovictory with accurate play & exchanging blacks active pieces in order to cut down blackscounter attack chances.
